Ī popular story says that the word hell was introduced to China by Christian missionaries, who preached that all non-Christian Chinese people would "go to hell" when they died, and through a case of misinterpretation, it was believed that the word "Hell" was the proper English term for the afterlife, and hence the word was adopted. Diyu is where the souls of the dead are first judged by the Lord of the Underworld (Yan Wang) to be either escorted to heaven or sent into the maze of underground levels and chambers where souls are taken to atone for their earthly sins. The hell referred to is Diyu (Traditional Chinese: 地獄, Simplified Chinese: 地狱 literally: "underground court"). In Chinese mythology, the word hell does not carry a negative connotation.
